I doubt they’re for dissidents. More likely to be used in the event of floods, hurricanes etc.

Still is can be used as a club against the democrats.

Swing at will.

“Swing” carefully,
lest you appear to be a kook.

I’d point at the record and the statements of the bill’s sponsor, as relates to what he’d like to do with dissidents.

“I doubt they’re for dissidents. More likely to be used in the event of floods, hurricanes etc.”

C’mon - you’re smarter than that.

2CavTrooper summed it up very well:

Military bases are already used for staging areas in case of disaster.

Every time there is a hurricane that’s going to hit the gulf coast, there are hundreds of tractor trailers loaded with food, water, ice, blankets, cots, tents, etc that are prepositioned at Maxwell AFB.

Some refugees from Katrina were housed on military bases.

At no time in our history did we ever need these permanent camps.

The great Chicago fire was handled without these camps.

The San Fransisco earthquake and fire was handled without these camps.

Mount St. Helens was handled without these camps.

The Galveston blast was handled without these camps.

And there were numerous storms and other natural disasters that were handled without these camps.

So the question should really be why is an America hating ‘rat congressman hell bent for leather to establish these ‘camps’ now?
